Norms Fitness (at Boot camp)

Soon, Month of May - MORE BOOTCAMP! LOL

Howdy everyone and how are you doing?  I had the two most gruelling workouts in Bootcamp ever on Good Friday and Easter Monday.  We HIT THE HILL!

A very steep, tall hill like I have never seen before.  Jog/run all the way to the top! Over and over again.
On Good Friday we climbed the hill in Ottawa 3 times and that was enough for me, but the run that followed was a very long hard difficult run of about 5 km.

May will be my 3rd month of boot camp. With Soldiers of Fitness I am seeing some results, and feeling younger, and happier.  This is a great journey.

Fitness Bootcamp Blog (LAST MONTH) Lol!

Six weeks of Boot Camp Complete!

I can't believe I am doing this!  I am 44 years old and quite overweight (but losing fat quickly with cardio workouts).  And now the sunsine is here and the possibility to train for a short 5Km run, in a weekend marathon (maybe?); well one thing at a time since I still have 2 more weeks of Boot camp.
I have a T-shirt from the boot camp club i belong to, and I may get a pic of me in that shirt on the blog tomorrow.
Get ready its going to be a great spring and summer.  But I have to say it was a very long winter.  Have a great day and have fun!

Weekend is here. What a week it was!

My leg cramp is going away slowly.  I still reported to boot camp on Thursday.  It was not a cardio day, but a strength day.  There were three stations.  First station had to do staggered push-ups, then bear walk to the next station.  I was not sure how my leg would feel, but it helped my leg to "bear walk".   At the next station we had to do diamond push ups and then onto the next station moving along "inch worm style".  The longest part was getting from one station to another doing the bear walk or inch walk.  Of course I sometimes need a pain reliever before my boot camp session.  And I properly stretch before boot camp.
I have a plan for the weekend.  My plan is to use the treadmill at home on Saturday and Sunday.  I will get to the gym for some weight training, chest exercises.  Having a plan is very important.  Do you have a plan?

Please leave your comments, I'd like to know what others fellow fitness people are doing for exercise on the weekend.  Th
anks for all your support, and have a great weekend! :)
